 Atomic Board Flex Rating: 6: Atomic's Flex Ratings go from 2 (soft) to 8 (stiff), so this board is in the upper end of stiffness. Stiffer boards have higher top speeds, have better stability at speed and better stability through bumpy/choppy terrain--but softer boards are easier to learn on and easier to do terrain park tricks with. At a rating of 6, the rider using this board would be a strong All-Mountain snowboarder that may do laps in the park every once in a while but is more often than not shredding around somewhere off-piste.

 Atomic's Pop Rocker AT (All Terrain) is a rocker shape that offers the benefits of a reverse camber snowboard, such as easier turn initiation and superior float in powder. The Pop Rocker AT shape has a longer rockered section in the nose than in the tail, so when you want to rip groomers fast, you will have a strong edge hold on your heelside (when riding switch, the stronger edge will be your toe-side).
 7000 Impact Base: This base is first extruded and then sintered, so it is hard and fast (like a sintered base) and requires low maintenance (like an extruded base). This is literally the best of both worlds.
 2.5 Degree (Park) Bevel: The 2.5 degree bevel eliminates rail and kicker hangups and lets you stick landings on spins that you didn't quite spin enough.
Truth 1 Wood Core Truth1 uses 100% Poplar for a consistent flex tip-to-tail, and long-term durability.
Kevlar Armor Struts: Kevlar rods inside the board run from the inner insert to the tip and tail, and Kevlar is a very high strength-to-weight ratio material. So basically adding Kevlar struts to the core of the board make it stiffer, poppier, and more durable without adding much weight.
Biaxal Sandwich Construction: While stiffer than a Cap construction snowboard, this Biax Sandwich board is torsionally soft to help the rider manhandle the board and gain confidence. Twin Progressive Sidecut: The sidecut used in most (good) park boards, a Twin Progressive sidecut lets you get in and out of turns quickly and easily. This sidecut is best for spinning, jumping, riding switch and just playing around in general--and they are worst at railing icy groomers at Mach 5. |
